It's back! The 11th Edition of the SHORE 2 SHORE cycling classic. This unique format allows cyclists to experience mixed routes comprising paved and gravel surfaces throughout Windsor/Essex and Chatham/Kent. Choose from an approximate 60 km or 120 km distance in either a TEAM or SOLO format.
TEAM OPTION - 120 km Route Only.
Start Time - 9:05 am first team depart. Staggered starts for remaining teams. Official start times announced the week prior.
Gather 5 to 10 riders of your choosing to tackle the course. Whether you ride it at a leisurely pace, or try to cover the distance quickly, the key is to work together throughout the duration.
Results based on WHEN you finish, not how fast you finish.
SOLO OPTION - 60 km OR 120 km Route.
Start Time - 9:00 am for 120 km. 10:45 am for 60 km.
Prefer to ride it as an individual? Set off on an adventure and ride the course at your own pace.
Goal is to have ALL riders/teams finish the event in a close time proximity.
REGISTRATION INCLUDES:
Unique & scenic routes
Pre ride caffeine courtesy of Red Lantern Coffee Co.
Post ride food & beverages
On course support w/ aid station
Pledge incentives for top fundraisers and raffle prizes (more to come!)
FAQ's:
Style of route? Expect both routes to comprise approximately 30% gravel.
Are the routes marked? Both routes will be sent in a GPX file to all riders the week before the event. This will allow turn by turn navigation when paired with a bike computer.
Type of bike? Both road and gravel bikes are suitable, but tire choice will be more critical. Since the majority of the route is paved, a slick tire between 28c - 35c will be most efficient.
On course support? Individuals and teams are expected to be mainly self-supported. Carry repair kits for flats. There will be one aid station on the course for fuel and hydration. Riders wanting specific items can have them transported to the aid station (drop off items for transport at check-in).

Join The RUNEGADE Podcast for an unforgettable night in the woods.
A Midsummer’s Night Scream is Southwest Ontario’s only trail race, taking place on Saturday, July 18 at 7:00 PM in the beautiful (and beautifully twisted) Two Creeks Conservation Area.
This 8km night trail run blends the magic of trails with just the right touch of terror. Misty forests, glow or early moonlight, and trails that feel they're coming alive at dusk.
You’ll experience the gnarliest, most wonderful singletrack in the region with dusk approaching - roots, ruts, and pine needle paths - as you race away from ghouls, spirits and the mysterious.
Brought to you by The RUNEGADE Podcast, this event is all about supporting independent running media and supporting our local trails.
Whether you've been curious about the trails, or just looking for an unique summer adventure, this is your chance to run through shadows, conquer challenging terrain, and scream (with excitement) alongside fellow trail runners.
Spots are limited - register now and join us for an evening you won’t soon forget.

Participants in A Midsummer’s Night Scream acknowledge that trail running, involves inherent risks including, but not limited to, uneven terrain, roots, rocks, wildlife, low visibility, and potential for injury or illness. All runners participate entirely at their own risk.
